How To Find Specific Database Object

May 3, 2005

I am wondering if there is a quick way to find a database object (table, query, form, report) other than having to scroll through them in the database window.

E.g. I have many many queries and when I need to find one to make changes to it, it often takes me a while to find it when scrolling thru the queries in the database window.

Has anyone ever programmed anything whereby you can type in the object type and name and then it will be highlighted in the database window?

This would be a great time saver.

Thanks,
BJS

Modules & VBA :: Search CSV To Find Specific Statement / Text On Specific Line?

Jul 8, 2015

how to read a specific line in a CSV file (using VBA), to see if the phrase "There are no records available." is present.

If it is present, then I'm going to do a debug.print stating that there are no records to load - and then the script will move on to the next file. If the phrase isn't present, then I'm going to upload the file to Access, parse the information, and then upload it to a CRM. (I already have the latter portion of the code up and running....I just need to account for the first part, where I can determine if the file has data or not).

The structure of the file never changes. The first row is composed of eight column headers (Post Date, Card Number, Card Type, Auth Date, Batch Date, Reference Number, Reason, Amount) and (if) the phrase "There are no records available." is present, it will show up on the second row, in the first column (under Post Date).

Tables :: Student Database For Daily Attendance - Column Limitations

Dec 31, 2012

I'm in the process of constructing a student database for my school which would track (in addition to detailed student information) the daily attendance of over 270 students.

It is my understanding that there is a limit of 255 field names per table, so I can't use the student names as field names, nor can I really use dates as this would not quite cover even a year.

Student ID and AttendanceDate as field names is also not really a feasible strategy, as each week this would eat up 1300+ rows, so I would run out of space in that direction as well.

My question is ultimately am I better off building this in excel 2010, or is there a way of doing this in access that I have overlooked?

Using 'Group By' To Find A Specific Record...

Oct 10, 2005

Hi,
I have a table with various customer items, a current price and the date the price changed.

EXAMPLE DATA

CustID/ItemCode/DateChanged/Value
AAA 21 01/01/2004 £3.00
AAA 21 01/06/2005 £5.00
AAA 21 01/03/2005 £4.00
AAA 22 01/01/2005 £6.00
AAA 22 01/06/2005 £7.00
BBB 25 01/01/2005 £8.00
BBB 25 03/07/2005 £9.00
BBB 26 01/06/2005 £1.00
BBB 26 01/09/2005 £2.00

Note: Dates are in "dd/mm/yyyy" format. Also, not all data is in order in the table. It’s not how I would have designed it but that’s what I need to work with!

I would like to run a query that groups by custID & itemcode and also the most recent date for any price change. I would then like the query to display the relating price for the record it pulls out. (EG for custID 'AAA' and item 21, it would display the price of £5 as that is the value for the most recent price as of 01/06/2005)
I then want to link the custID & itemcode to another table that has sales in, to check that we are using the most recent price.

Is there a way I can do this via a query or do I need to put some code together?

Cheers
Red [CODE]

Find A Specific Record To Return A Value

Aug 15, 2007

Having problems with the following function to goto a specific record and return a value from a field in that record.

Code:'Public Function intFieldZConv(strICAO As String) As IntegerPrivate Function intFieldZConv() As Integer 'TEST PURPOSE ONLYDim strICAO As String 'TEST PURPOSE ONLYstrICAO = "KTCM" 'TEST PURPOSE ONLYDim cnCurrent As ADODB.ConnectionDim rsFieldInfo As ADODB.RecordsetSet cnCurrent = CurrentProject.ConnectionSet rsFieldInfo = New ADODB.RecordsetrsFieldInfo.Open "tblFieldInfo", cnCurrent, , , adCmdTable'rsFieldInfo.Index = "FieldICAO"'rsFieldInfo.Seek "=", strICAOintFieldZConv = rsFieldInfo!FieldZConvSTMsgBox intFieldZConv 'TEST PURPOSE ONLYrsFieldInfo.ClosecnCurrent.CloseSet rsFieldInfo = NothingSet cnCurrent = NothingEnd Function

strICAO is received from another function which is to be used to determine the specific record in the table "tblFieldInfo". Once that record is referenced, the value from the field "FieldZConVST" is returned.

My problem area is highlighed (index and seek) which I receive an error stating "method or data member not found". Any help would be appreciated on how to finding a specific record.

Thanks

Find Unique Products To Specific Build ID's

Dec 14, 2006

I have a table with 5 fields:

Build ID Process Product Product_De Operation_

What I am trying to accomplish is as follows:

Each Product can be in the table mulitiple times depending on how many Build ID's it has. So if Product 123456 has Build ID's G004, E818, N005, F813, D024, C879 it will show up one time each for each Build ID. What I want to query is unique Products that are for Build ID's D024 & C879 only and not for G004, E818, N005, & F813.

How can I accomplish this with a query. I am sure I am making this harder than it is but I sure need help.

Modules & VBA :: Looping Through Columns To Find A Specific Value

Nov 20, 2013

This query returns a running asset balance for 60 months. Each month is 1 column.

1) I need to create a query based on those results that can cycle through each column and determine if it is NEGATIVE. Then if it is negative, I need to perform some math on it to determine how to get it back up to being positive.

2) I need to loop through X columns based on the assets lead time. Each lead time varies and I have a master table that contains it. So if the assets lead time is 3 months, I need it to move over 3 columns and return that value. If it is 6 months then I need it to return the value in the 6th column.

Queries :: How To Find If Memo Contains A Specific Word

Mar 18, 2015

I need to find whether a memo field contains a specific word. I know how to find whether it contains a specific string.

Let's say I am looking for the word "run." I would not want a positive result when searching "I don't like gerunds," but I WOULD want to find the records with "I know how to 'run' a search."

So I am looking for WORDS, not matching strings.

I am perfectly willing to use a user-defined function, to put involved processing into the query, such as

Code:
...
WHERE FieldHasWord("run", memoField) = True
AND ...

Reports :: Find PaperSize Value Of Printer For A Specific Form

Apr 17, 2013

I have a custom form setup for 1up 1.5inch labels on the print server. We are printing these on Okidata Printers using an Epson driver.

I want to know how you can find the specific printersize number value for a form called "1_5upLabels" which is a custom form.

I am not looking to do this manually in the page setup for the report but to programmatically so that it's dynamic.

Is there a way I can loop through the forms for this printer and check for the form name?

Modules & VBA :: Find All Files / Folders In A Specific Directory

Sep 1, 2014

I'm using a function to find all files/folders in a specific directory, then copy each one to a specific destination folder. I'm going to use this on a weekly basis to backup files on a computer. I would like to use the vbarchive in GetAttr/SetAttr so I only need to copy these if they have changed since last backup.

Something like:

If GetAttr(strFile) And vbArchive = 32 then
filecopy xxxx, xxxx
else
rs.movenext

As I understand it, a value of 32 indicates that the file has been modified since it was last backuped up (i.e. since the file attribute was "reset"). How do I "reset" the file attributes to clear the vbArchive?? I've read some google searches and the only thing I could find was the files were set to vbnormal however I'm concerned that this will erase program files that are vbReadOnly or VbHidden.

General :: Find Specific Row And Copy Its Fields To Array

Feb 16, 2014

I'm new to Access but comfortable with Excel and VBA.I'm trying to transform a VBA-heavy form from Excel into an Access database, as multiple accessing is required, as well as data analysis. The situation is I have a form where users enter data (name, account number, date, etc). The account number is unique, and I have a table of approximately 14000 account numbers which contains the company name, address, and other details for each account number. I've set the account number as the primary ID on the accounts table.

What I would dearly love to be able to do is: when the account number is entered on the form, it is searched for (e.g. by the user clicking a button) from the accounts table. If it is located, the 7 fields in the relevant row are displayed in 7 textboxes on the form. I do not want to record the address, just display it on the form so the user can choose whether or not to use it.

So far, I have found GetRows, which seems to be able to convert the fields into a 2D array... this could be usable. But how can I do the first bit - find the correct row in the accounts table based on the account number entered into the textbox on the form? Is it possible to do this behind the scenes? In other words, Access finds the right row and displays each field in its textbox on the form, without producing a report form first.

Queries :: How To Find Minimum Value Of A Column

How to find the Minimum value of a column. This is my SQL:

The part in blue, instead of pulling a +2, I want the Minimum value. Seems simple enough.

Queries :: Find Specific Data In A Table To Produce A Report

May 14, 2013

I have a table that is linked into access 2003. This table is updated by personnel in another location and I have to run a weekly report on engines that are below a certain performance level.

The column heading is MGT Margin and I have to list all of the engines that are below 20 degrees.

Can I run a query that looks at this table and produces a report of all the engines that are below 20 degrees?

I currently have to cut and paste each engine from the updated spread sheet every week onto a separate spread sheet and import that into access. If a query can be used to do what I am after I can use similar principles in other reports I have to run.

Modules & VBA :: Custom Function Module - Find Records With Specific Keywords

Feb 28, 2014

I'm looking for some type of custom function that will search a specified column for any keywords listed inside another table.

I can run a query on each keyword individually, however there are 50 and it takes a long time each time I do it. I was hoping to write in a function for that column and it would just select all records that match.

These would all need to be a "like" with an " * " on each end of the word.

With SQL it would look something like:

Code:
select a.address1
from main_tbl as a
where a.address1 like '* north *'
or a.address1 like '* park *'
or a.address1 like '* south *';

I just want it to read each of the table values instead of hard coding them and the column name would be the function name so it can be used in any column I specify. I'm just not sure how to incorporate this into a custom function.

Binding A Field To Specific Column In A Pull Down Manue

Feb 28, 2005

I created a a table with multiple columns. For example the table looks like as follows:

Table name - Observationcode
Code Value Description
CCH 1000 Heavy Crack
CCM 750 Medium Crack
CCL 500 Low Crack

I created fields on the subform - frmsubmain1
Field names are as follows:

Observation Code
Value
Description

I created combobox for a field called "observation code" so that the above mentioned table "observationcode" appear as a pull down menu to select from multiple lists. In the property section I bound the feild "Observation Code" to " column 1" to record the item in the column 1. I reapted this process for the fields "Value" but this time I bound the field to column 2 to show the value rate or value for the selected code. Again I reapeated this process for field name called "Description" but this time I bound the column to the column 3 to record the description for the corresponding code.

On the main form - frmmain

I created a field called Rate to calculate the total value in the subform "frmsubmain1" the validation rule looks like as follows:
=sum(Forms![frmsubmain1]![Value])

None of these seems like working except for the first one "Observation code". Observation code is looking into the right column and registering the right code but not the other two fields are not looking to the right columns, instead they are looking into the firts coloumn. I don't know why. Can anyone help me resolve these issues. I appreciate your help. Thanks.
